Hi, My data is not this simple or static. I gave this sample XML just to explain the structure.
The XML is going to be dynamic, hence I need to parse it using something like XPATH (I suppose). Regards On 6/5/06, Weldon MacDonald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
If your data is that consistent and all you need is to transfer it to arrays, then why do you need xpath, you could write your own parser, using while loops, to do this in very little time. I'm not an experrt, but it seems to me that xpath is more useful for dynamic access to the xml. Is that not correct? If I am correct, an interesting question is; what is more efficient, transferring to arrays and using the arrays, or dynamically accessing the xml directly?
